Another day, another park

First a video message for G&G:



After a morning of running errands, working at the dental office, cleaning house and taking a nice long nap (guess who did what), we had a late lunch and headed to join the masses at Homewood Park.

Why is it that everything always tastes better when it belongs to someone else?

We first stopped to look at the water under the bridge, but Ben caught a glimpse of the playground on the other side.
"What the what?"

"I want to go to there."

And off he went! Had to capture his walking on camera, because it improves with each passing day. He walked all the way to the playground, distracted only by a big, white fetch-playing poodle!


Vroom, vroom!

And we happened to run into my friend from work, Wendi, and her son, Owen! Fun to get the Rec Center babies together when we can - missed you Aubrey!

What nice posture you have, Owen!
You can tell something had captured the boys' attention here...but just not enough for smiles.



Once a tuckered-out Ben hit the sack that evening, Tyler and I chowed down on the first home-grilled steaks of the year and enjoyed chocolate decadence cake for dessert, along with some coffee so that we could push through the after-dinner sleepiness and celebrate Valentines Day with Jack Bauer and the 24 gang (1 season down, 6 more to go - we're on a mission!). Sure beats fighting the restaurant crowds!

Such a big boy walking all over the place! I especially love the intense look on his face in the "What the what picture! I think I've seen that look on his Daddy's face before.
